TO ALL WHOM IT MAY` CONCERN:

Be it known that I, JOHN PELSOR,'O` Brooklyn, in the county of Schuyler, and State of Illinois, have invented certain new arid useful Improvements in Churns; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specifica-tion. In the annexedA drawings, which make a part of this specication- Figure 1 represents a side view of` my churn.

Figure 2'is a plan view of the same. A, which designates the body of my churn, is quadrate in form, and diminishes'in' size .frombottom to top.

Two sides of the churn are made higher than the other two, in order that they may receive the spindle d, on

which the dasherstaii`sE E are intended to work. B, which represents the top of the churn, is furnished with 'three cleats,f, in form as seen in dotted lines, igfI. Through these cleats the spindle d passes, and between which tljfe stads E E can ply with a reciprocating motion. grepreseuts a. series of boards, which penetrate the staffs E E, and, constitute the dashers of my churn.' The boardsag, it will be seen, by reference ,to ig. A2, are reduced to half their width on the inner side of the stads E E. On-one stad; the lower half oi' the boards is removed, aud on the other statt. the upper half is removed, so that` when in motion the several boards can pass each other without impingin'g. D represents a brace, securely fastened to one side of churn A, through which a slot is cut to receive the twc pulleys m and n, as shown .in dotted lines, iig. 1.' The pulley m has its axle secured to the outer side of brace D by -cleats L. The axle of pulley n is secured in a similar-'manner to the inner side oi' said brace. -The axle of pulley et extends far enoughthrough brace D to admit ofthe arms .0, which are securely fastened to the opposite ends of said axle, One of the arms C is bolted to the axle at its upper end, and the other at its lower end of the arm, so that the two' pitmen to whichthey are fastened will always move in opposite directions. H H represent the pitmen, which are pivotedto the arms'c e at one end, and made` forked at the other end, to receive the'staffs E E. 4I represents, in dotted lines, the cross-band, which drives the upper pulley n when the lower pulley m is operatedeby crank s. i

It-will-be remarked that when the pulley m is revolving, it will impart a rapid motion to the small pulley maud by the consequent rapid motion of the pitmen H H', and of the .dasher.s, the required agitation will be given to the milk.

Having thus described my invention, what -Iclaim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

1. The stais E E, furnished with dasher-boards g, so constructed that-the lower half of the boards on one sta'' will pass the upper half of the board g on'the other without impinging.

2. The box. A, the top Bfthe stas E E, the arms C, and pulleys m and n, the whole combined, constructed, and operating substantially as described.'

In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own, I ailix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
